Supplements: What I take. What do you take?
Sep 30 2009, 12:31 PM EDT
Hi Everyone, I just finished reading posts about Apple Cider Vinegar, diet pills etc. I thought I might let you all know what I do, that is...if your are interested. ;-) I would also really like to know what everyone else takes or how they feel about supplements. I should mention I am in the US so some of you may not have heard of these. I am drinking an Apple Cider Vinegar supplement, 1 ounce a day. Not hard to take at all. I have always heard consistently good things about ACV. I get it from here: www.yodersgoodhealthrecipe.com. Read the "Herbs & Vinegar" part. I take Metabolife and CitriMax. Each are 2 capsules a day, 3 times a day. For me, they are just an appettite suppressant and slight energy booster. The truth is I bought the bottles and now I just want to finish them. They are not one of my must-have supplements. I drink Monavie, 2 ounces a day. It's an Acai berry drink but has lots of other stuff in it (fruits/vegetables) because I am obviously not eating those things. It's a good way to keep your health up so you can keep going and no one knows whats going on. Lastly, I take various energy supplements made by the company VPX. Redline, Meltdown, or Liquid Clenbutrx. Right now, I take the Liquid Clenbutrx. It tastes vile but its the best appettite suppressant and enegy booster I have ever encountered. I never combine them! It's one at a time or nothing at all. They are very strong. I am to the point where your average energy drink/pills don't work for me. I don't work for these people, I don't want to sound like a commercial but they really do make strong stuff. My husband and I used to joke that we thought they were slipping Cocaine it. If you take it of your own risk, follow the directions: start with the minimum!! My diet is built around strict carb restriction. XOXO 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

Ok well your right I`ve never heard of any of that stuff.I was taking alot of diet pills over the past 12 months on and off but ive come to the conclusion that they`re useless (well those that i had anyway). I take Co enzyme Q 10, Chromium Picolinate (helps regulate your blood glucose levels so you dont crash and have cronic cravings) and a regular multivitamin for hair skin and nails. I also take Magnesium, vit C and a B Vitamin complex. ( B Vitamins are great for improving mood and seratonin levels, happy vitamins) Thats me. I lax sometimes and i do occasionally buy some form of diet pills. xxx Do you find this valuable? |

Ohhh I want to use some form of help but I suck!! Lol - I lax a lot. And I have a multi vit but you should take them with food and then since I never plan to really eat it never works well... works the same for a pill I have which boosts your metabolism but you need to take it one hour before eating so I always forget. Sucks. I wanna go down to the health store and rade it for the magic pill that will take away all my fat lol.

"I get ya, im often wondering about the futility of my pill popping when they seem to require food to work. I guess im hoping the placebo effect will take over :)"it might sound masochisic. but decent weight loss pills can push the metab up so u burn fat. and i have actually found with the good ones, you are just wracked with hunger. so to me that means it prolly has appetite suppresant, but that it also encourages you to eat a few small meals- which obviously pushes metab higher, and that thru excersize helps. its expensive as hell, but if i knew of something that could just keep the metab kicking in high gear- it would sooo be worth it fighting the body and having to ignore a constanstly rumbling tummy. but as i said i might be a bit masochistic. :) cheers in working it all out- will look forward to some resolution.

hmmm supplements: vitamin B complex, Iron plus vitamin C, Zinc plus Copper, Multvitamin plus iron and cod liver oilI'm currently looking for a good fibre supplement, any recommendations?? I also swear by pure hoodia gordonii its pricey but you can't beat it for appetite suppression though these days i only really take it at night cos i don't feel i need it during the day. I also drink all manner of herbal teas, some tasty some not so tasty all in the hopes that they will cleanse, detox and speed metabolism lol Do you find this valuable? |

My mum watches what I buy and looks through my room everynow and then so I can't really have any supplements lying around..I've taken to sneaking her vitamins that she keeps in the pantry, just your usual vitamins and multi-vitamins. And as LittleGirlLost said herbal teas or black teas. oh and "hoodia gordonii" whats that? Do you find this valuable? |

Its an appetite suppressant that was originally taken in its natural form by the aborigines. They used to chew it when they went on long hunting trips so that they could go days without food :) Google it, its an interesting read actually but it really does work.I have a box under my bed where i keep all my supplements and various diet pills and other things she'd probably prefer me not to have lol Do you find this valuable? |

Yeh but nobody really goes in my room anyways so i don't have much cause to hide stuff. You could try using a cd storage box and always leave cds near it.
